The federal electorate of Fairfax stretches from Peregian Springs in the north to Maroochydore, Buderim and the Sunshine Motorway in the south; and west to the Hinterland and rural towns of Eumundi, Yandina, Nambour, Woombye, Mapleton and Kenilworth.
It's an area known for its natural beauty, three unique biospheres and lifestyle that’s second to none. Its ancient history goes back to the time of the Bunya feasts, with the first inhabitants being the Gubbi Gubbi/Kabi Kabi and Jinibara People.
Each pocket of Fairfax has its own character and priorities. What we share in common is an appreciation for this incredible area, and a determination to protect and enhance the gifts and opportunities of living here, now and into the future.
Fairfax is named for Ruth Fairfax, founder of the Country Women’s Association. However Fairfax has never been represented by a woman.
